Wear the season. In this festive workshop, you'll handcraft a pair of stunning sterling silver earrings inspired by the natural beauty of winter foliage — delicate leaves, holly sprigs, mistletoe, or evergreen branches brought to life in precious metal.
Nature has always been jewellery's greatest muse, and there's no better time to celebrate it than Christmas. Using traditional silversmithing techniques, you'll cut, shape, texture, and finish your own pair of botanical earrings — each one a tiny work of wearable art that captures the magic of the season.
You'll learn to transfer your chosen foliage design onto sterling silver sheet, then carefully cut it out using a jeweller's saw. From there, you'll add realistic texture and detail — veins on a leaf, the prickle of a holly point, the gentle curve of a branch — using hammers, stamps, and hand tools. Your earrings are then filed, refined, and polished to a beautiful finish before being fitted with sterling silver ear wires, ready to wear.
Suitable for all levels — This workshop is suitable for beginners with no previous jewellery making experience. The workshop allows participants to learn basic techniques and skills to create their own fun and festive earrings to flaunt all over town this festive season. During this workshop you'll learn techniques such as wire forming, wrapping, beading and attaching jewellery findings to create at least 2 pairs of festive earrings.
A perfect Christmas gift — or a gift to yourself. Make a pair for your own ears, or craft them for someone special. Handmade earrings carry a meaning that no high street purchase ever could.
All materials and tools provided, including sterling silver sheet, ear wires, and full use of professional workshop equipment. You'll leave wearing your finished earrings — a little piece of winter you made with your own hands.
